Tasting Notes
Dense and contemplative, the Philippe Alliet 'Coteau de Noiré' Chinon 2022 makes a compelling case for Cabernet Franc as a variety of genuine gravitas. Dark wild berries, cedar, and pencil lead on the nose, complex, brooding, and unmistakably of the Loire. The palate is full and enveloping, driven by bright acidity and a mineral-laden finish of real persistence, anchored by powdery tannins of exceptional refinement. One of Chinon's most serious addresses, at the top of its game.
